AQ ADA Aquascaping Contest 2009

[ADA SG]

Guys!
The clock is ticking down!!!!
Hope to receive more registrations!! Don't worry that you will not win or what. Let it be a fun thing. Don't be too stressed.

ok, do we have to submit our photos as attachments or can we use a 3rd party hosting site?

Hi dff, we would prefer it to be in the attachment so that we can upload directly into our servers. The submission information for the photos is in the top post. =)

I've often wondered why the IAPLC organisers did not ask for 45 degree views as additional 'proof'. It's easy to PS a front view but to make it match for side angle is pretty difficult.

Stan, don't make it more complicated lar.

However not to worry. We have a team that are very sharp eyed when it comes to PS'ed pics. Against all odds the cheat is a master PS'er/photographer but lousy aquascaper, he'll unlikely be able to go very far. To have a great 'faked composite pic', you still need great parts shot perfectly to compose.

Almost all the judges are photographers themselves. And also PS users. So quite difficult to fake the judges by doing PS on their photos.

As for the question on the cropping, it is okay to crop. However, it is not necessary.

There was cheating in ADA 08 but yet it made it pass the judging.

There was cheating in ADA 08 but yet it made it pass the judging.

And it didn't give that country a very good name in the international forums. So let's not emulate that.

Alright-all in the spirit of fun but remember, the guy who takes the grand prize has to buy us lunch.
Just kidding!
